A Supportive Mixed Media Workshop

Are you finding it hard to imagine the future you want—or to gather the momentum to bring your vision to life? Vision Boarding in Uncertain Times offers a refreshing, supportive approach to reclaiming clarity and direction. In this two-session mixed-media class, you’ll gently re-vision the traditional vision board, transforming it into a grounded, nurturing tool for self-discovery rather than pressure or perfection. Through guided reflection, creative exercises, and meaningful discussion, you’ll explore your unique strengths, reconnect with what truly sustains you, and identify opportunities for self-nurturing. You will create one to two new vision boards aligned with your personal strengths and emerging possibilities. Join us to cultivate insight, inspiration, and a renewed sense of hope—no matter what the world around you is doing. 

This class meets on two Tuesdays: Jan. 13 and Jan. 20, from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m.
